What are the energy transformations when a gun is fired?

There are a few energy transformations when a gun is fired. Some of these include potential to kinetic energy, chemical to mechanical energy, and chemical to electromagnetic energy.


Which has more energy the bullet or the recoiling gun?

Although their linear momenta are equal, their potential, kinetic, and heat energies are different. The gun has more heat. Regarding potential energy, it can vary. But if the shot is anywhere near horizontal and the shooter doesn't drop the gun, then the recoiling gun has more gravitational potential energy at any time after the shot. The fired bullet has more kinetic energy.
